We are presented with 3520 and 8431. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 1 in column 1 and get 1.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 3 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 4 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 8 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3520 + 8431 = 11951.
